Summer Dreams 2005
Posted by Q.Rock639 at 9:45 PM 0 comments
I Can't Wake Up!
Wicked dreams last night.
The kind that are so macabe and bizzare that your sub conscious is terrified but too involved in working out the nocturnal puzzle, that you can't wake up. Now I know what KRS-One must have been feeling when he wrote that song!
Anyway, it was all fragmented and disjointed....scenes of me driving a convertible, top down, in the desert with a woman totally naked in the front seat. We kept passing by truckers who would honk their horns and yell out the window. I have no idea who this Barbie doll looking chick is, or why she is in my car, or where the hell we are going. She kept jumping up and down and shaking her tits and waving, while I'm screaming sh!t like "Girl sit your ass down before you kill yourself" and "Put your top back on!".
Next thing I remember is being in a fight with some big azz dude and he is killing me. Knocking my teeth out, kicking my ribs in, and basically kicking my azz every which way but loose. Then I start getting the upper hand, until he decks me. I fall down and see a gun on the floor. I pick up the gun and stand up. When I do, I spit out like 4 teeth and point the gun at him. We both start laughing.
Other weird shit was going on, but it's all faded already. Tonight I'm taking sleeping pills so NO dreams will be present! Hopefully.

It's working.....it's working.....
Whew....the website is finally done. There may be a link page down but other than that, it's up and ready to rock and roll!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I help run a small, independent, all natural soap company here in LA. We have some really great product, and I'm not just saying that because I help run the place.
Did you know most soap products are made with some form of animal fat, aka tallow? We use all natural products in our soaps, with nothing but the best essential oils. I don't want to sound like a commercial here, but the soaps really are great! (My fav is the cinnamon poppy) along with soap we offer body butters, body mist, lip balms, oat and milk baths, and may start selling some of our secret recipes, the essential oils as well. We are also working on a few private label deals, if all goes as planned, the new product is going to be incredible!
Anyway, I am the tech guy here (scary huh) and have been fighting with this website for about 2 weeks now. It's finally done. I think I'll go grab a J&C to celebrate. You should shop a little while you're here.
We will be at the California Gift Show Convention next weekend. Wish us luck!

MISS K-SLY'S SLEAZY REPORT
Quote from K- Sly 's Sleazy Report-
You might be seeing a picture of Mariah’s boobies! During a show in Germany, there was a wardrobe
malfunction mid-concert. She quickly caught the problem and the lights were shut off as soon as it happened. So, no one has seen any photos, as-of-yet, since it happened so quickly.
Oh, you mean these photos? Not much to see really. Besides, with all the news her sister
is getting, I think I'll leave Mimi alone. For now.

Hard out here for a pimp...
Hustlin' and Ho'in for Holly'hood:The Art of Pimpin' Pickaninnies is a great read and offers the other side of the coin to my review.
Having watched "Hustle & Flow", for what it is, the movie is tight.

Upon hearing that her elderly grandfather had just passed
away, Katie went straight to her grandparent's house to
visit her 95 year-old grandmother and comfort her.
When she asked how her grandfather had died, her
grandmother replied, "He had a heart attack while
we were making love on Sunday morning."
Horrified, Katie told her grandmother that 2 people
nearly 100 years old having sex would surely be asking
for trouble.
"Oh no, my dear," replied granny. "Many years ago,
realizing our advanced age, we figured out the best
time to do it was when the church bells would start to
ring.
It was just the right rhythm. Nice and slow and even.
Nothing too strenuous, simply in on the Ding and out
on the Dong.
She paused to wipe away a tear, and continued, "he'd
still be alive if the ice cream truck hadn't come along

Until Tomorrow
Come, let me take you away,
on a journey
over ice clad hills and frozen streams
let us stop to light the fire one more
time
travel with me into the lowest valley
the sunken land still shimmering
from the cold wind, we seek shelter
we seek comfort, we seek something more
rise now as the ice forms on your brow
tread the miles into the light
of day
lift your head to see the eagle soar
new things realizing old things ways
together see the ancient faces
through clouded skies
past normal eyes
into treasured lands
unmeasured plans
Come, let me take you away
taken from the preface of "My Sanctuary", written by Jason Lammons.

Mike Newhouse is the man!
Someone wrote an op-ed bit at BC and got more than they bargained for when Adam Goldberg and Christina Ricci showed up. As usual, I wasn't even looking in that direction when the fight broke out. If I had heard the ruckus when it started, I would have played the part of Melvin, and help try to break it up. No need to ruin a perfectly good party, right folks?
Read the comment's after the post for a journalist/reporters/bloggers nightmare!
Actor Adam Goldberg Has Meltdown On IFC
"You hear me talkin' Cerulean!?!
I ain't through with you by a damn sight.

A few shots from the Vegas trip~
Vegas at Dawn!
Live from the Luxor Hotel
"You scurvy shyster bastard! Watch your language!
You're talking to a Doctor of Journalism!"
Bellagio Hotel & Resort
Amazing hotel/casino with very freindly Blackjack tables! Enablers up $175 in 20 minutes! Party time!
Bellagio Lobby ceiling
"No point mentioning these bats, I thought.
The poor bastard will see them soon enough....."
Rio Hotel and Resort was amazing as well! The Voodoo Cafe and Lounge on the roof is too much to pass up! Do yourself a favor and hit this one up!
Body English at the Hard Rock was off the meter as expected! Nicole's man aka DJ AM, wasn't on the decks, but whoever was holding the DJ booth down did his thing! Big shouts to Jay Symns for the extra door passes. Good looking out!
That it for now. See you at the Magic Convention!
